They can skip the thread.  I say post all you like.

My thoughts exactly.

Well there are some resentful PM's coming in, let me put it this way.


Since you have your own thread, I see no reason why anyone would be upset.  :-\

That's a nice way of saying what I really want to say.  8)

Haven't read all the other replies, but here's my 2ยข:

(1) Please don't post a bunch of "my purchases" posts in a short period of time.  This pushes others posts off the page.  Just modify an existing post.  You could always keep a weekly log and paste that in at the end of the week.

(2) I don't like threads devoted to one person, but you're not the only one with his own vanity threads.  I don't read them, but it just annoys me to see them in the unread list.  Actually this annoys me more than (1).

I think you should send me all the CDs you buy and I will post them for you.

Well, in this thread only two negative reports, and the PM's of course.
Thanks for the positive input guys, that really means a lot to me.
One poster said something about a vanity thread.
I resent that vehemently.
It has nothing whatshowever to do with that.
I did not start my own purchase thread.
And furthermore I love to share my music with you guys.
It is as we are all sitting together listening to it.
Well I will continue then with posting them.
It made me happy to receive a lot of PM's this morning with good words.
Afterall I am a positive peace loving human being, and I am glad most of you are too!

Of course! It is much easier reading your posts with the beautiful covers than trying to keep up with new releases or looking through thousands of pages of catalogs!

I am also one unashamed to admit that I do occasional purchase CDs based on the beauty of the cover rather than interest in the music per se, especially when I know next to nothing about the composer or music. When it is a shot in the dark, it is always nice to know what even if the music is less than great, I am left with a beautiful looking cover on the jewelcase!

WHAT? Ridiculous and unacceptable behaviour.
Petty minds, Harry, they have just petty minds.

Please keep posting! :)

who cares?

The answer to that question is in the posts before you, so why ask?

I suppose one argument against it is that it is  taking up unecessary bandwidth? Ie. costing Rob money.

That's why Harry is a subscriber. He suscribes to pay for the part of bandwidth he takes up.  ;)

I just asked a question too, you know.
One you didn't chose to answer, but that's your privilege.

damn right, that's my privilege.

I would like you to refrain from such language my friend.
If you have a question to solve, do it by PM, and NOT on my thread.

If that is so, Rob will tell me, and I pay gladly more if needed.
Is it not time for you to subscribe also?
